A promise to pay what? An open question for credit theories of money
Abstract. Credit theories of money set themselves apart from other heterodox approaches by arguing that money, the instrument at the top of the monetary hi

Credit theories of money argue that money, the instrument at the top of the monetary hierarchy, is always a form of debt or promise to pay. But a promise to pay what? This is the question I ask in my latest article in the Cambridge Journal of Economics: academic.oup.com/cje/advance-...

Figure from our #policy #report: 1. The main barrier to #financing the necessary activities for the sustainable transition is their lack of #bankability 2. High GHG-emitting activities remain #bankable and thus continue to attract financing from banks and shadow banks www.uni-wh.de/en/your-camp...
Disclaimer: Many activities necessary for the green transition will never be bankable, and therefore will never be attractive for financial investors. As a result, the state should directly provide the necessary financing. You can find our full policy report here: www.uni-wh.de/en/your-camp...
